Well, Duh...

“For a Man in the Middle on Iraq, Church Provides No Sanctuary

The sign outside Accotink Unitarian Universalist Church in Burke announces that it is a "liberal, welcoming religious community." For Rep. Tom Davis yesterday, it was more liberal than welcoming.” The rest of the story is here . I’m surprised at rep. Davis’ naiveté- surely he didn’t expect a Republican to get a polite reception at a UU church. He must be a masochist.

Maybe he's smarter than you think Joel. Perhaps he attended the event to show just how unwelcoming U*U "churches" can be in the Washington Post. It seems that he did a pretty good job of it although it does seem that this event was open to the public and he got raked over the coals by some non-U*Us as well. In any case I don't think that this Washington Post article reflects very well on U*Us.
